My Creative Space – this week.

Over the weekend, not much got done in the way of household chores.  A few loads of washing were put on, but that is only because I did not have to spend too much time away from the sewing machine.

The reason was to turn these pieces of fabric…….

into a quilt top…….

(sorry for bad pics, all photos have to be taken inside due to the wet weather here)

Now, all I have to do is hunt down some backing fabric (I know what I want and can not find enough of it anywhere!!!!), and then I am going to hand quilt it.

I am super keen to get this finished, as it is freezing where we live, and I can not see it getting warmer any time soon, and would love to have it on the bed this winter.

So, I am off to keep searching the internet to hunt down the backing fabric, and then to get stitching!!!

Til next time

Mystery…

What will all these fabric hanging on the line become.

Watch this space. (hopefully not for too long!!)

Til next time.

Our little wedding.

A few weeks ago, we went away on a family holiday and got married at the same time.

We went to Tiona, in Northern NSW and got married in the Green Cathedral.  It was just the most gorgeous location and being from Melbourne, we also had the most wonderful weather too.  After spending just a week there, I am already sporting the summer thongs tan.

It was a great way to do it, as we had family and friends join us for either a few days, or some of them the whole week, and it meant that we were able to have a really good catch up with everyone, instead of just a brief conversation that you get have have with most people at weddings.  It was also SUPER RELAXED.  The ceremony was at 4 in the afternoon, and at 1 o’clock I was still wandering around in a tracksuit and finalising where things would go for the poolside reception.

All done, Husband & Wife!

Saying our I do’s!!


The gorgeous sunset from where we were staying.


Some sightseeing while we were away.  The lighthouse at Seal Rock’s.
A place we will visit again.

A stop-off in Sydney on the way home.

We are home now and have been for a few weeks and enjoying life as Husband and Wife.
More pictures will follow, once I get round to getting them organised and uploaded.
